Too busy

[elisi]

I have a ton of links I meant to share, but... *hands* Work has been v busy. And 2 out of 3 have started back in school/college. (Eldest is off to Cambridge (!!) at the end of the month.)

Also realised that I never shared the fact that Impish Girl did very well in her GCSE exams, including an A* in Latin Literature and a 9 (new grading system, 9 = very high A*) in English Literature. And she also passed maths (only just, but passing was the main thing).

(I can't even comprehend all the hurricanes etc. Too big to take in.)

Not just the hurricanes, we also have an earthquake and over 1.34 million acres of land in Montana alone, devastated by forest fires.

But...looking at the postive, congrats to Impish girl!!

Yeah that was covered in the 'etc'. Plus of course the flooding in India, the mudslides in Sierra Leone, and of course Yemen and Syria and.... yeah, the list is endless.

But...looking at the postive, congrats to Impish girl!!
Thank you. :)

The new grading system is just bizarre. But congrats on those results. I only just passed my Maths GCSE as well. I burned all my exercise books to celebrate. XD

Well done to Impish Girl for those GCSE grades (sooooooo confusing - and not fun at all being the first year to sit the new exams with the new system).

And good luck to Miss M with her Cambridge adventure - so exciting!

I'm lucky that I work in FE education - we've been using them for the past year.

And good luck to Miss M with her Cambridge adventure - so exciting!
She is very excited bless her. And slowly getting herself ready....

Thank you, honey! I think it will. It is surprising and awesome and staggering - but it seems it is definitely working out!
